Notre Dame really showed up in its last game vs. Florida State. That win came after the Fighting Irish lost four straight and were booed off the court. Previous to that skid, Notre Dame had covered six of seven. Wake Forest has really struggled down the stretch under first year head coach Steve Forbes, losing seven in a row straight up and six consecutive games ATS.

Wake Forest has lost seven straight, failing to cover its last six despite getting generous points. Notre Dame comes in with momentum after stunning Florida State 83-73 on Saturday. The Fighting Irish had a bad season, but they have talent in Prentis Hubb (14.7 ppg, 6.0 apg) and Nate Laszewski (13.8 ppg, 7.6 rpg). And they believe they can make a run in the ACC Tournament. On Feb. 2, Notre Dame handled the visiting Demon Deacons by 21 points. Notre Dame is a team that beat Duke and FSU, lost by one at UNC and by two at Georgia Tech. Lay it.
